The Markdown from a URL macro renders Markdown content from URLs or from profiles. Profiles are a means of retrieving information from other sources such as databases. To know more about the profiles created in your Confluence instance, contact your system administer. You can read more about profiles from this link. If you enter an absolute URL and also specify a profile, content is read from the URL and the profile is ignored.
